FIC: Fired (3/4) HIMYM AU

[idioticonion]

          It's funny how your brain suddenly doesn't know the way from A to B. How, in the moment after you hear that your friend's been shot, your mind decides to do a dump of unconnected thoughts, right into your frontal lobe.

But there are things that stand out; Memories and fragments, snatches of conversation.

Oh my, what has our Barney got himself involved in. *smishes him*

[idioticonion]

Thank you again for commenting! Barney's a bad boy indeed.

Can't wait to read what's next, this is gooood.

[idioticonion]

Thank you! Hopefully I'll have something more for you later on this weekend.

God damn it, Barney, you might be ENDANGERING them by not letting them know what's going on! UGH.

*almost smacks him but is too happy to find him alive, unlike the last time IO shot him*

This story's so wonderfully intense and well-done. I can't wait to see how you finish it.

[idioticonion]

Well, I couldn't very well kill him off again. that wouldn't be fair.

Not YET in the story anyway. ;-)

DUDE!!

For a moment I got this chilling feeling that Robin was the one who shot Barney or something wack like that but I'm past that now. And Robin >> literally guns a-blazing << is an awesome image and crap, I'd kind of be scared of her... yet they're right, she'd kind of be useless.

Stupid Barney, being so nonchalant about everything! Although he's kind of adorable all doped up. Weird how he called them... wouldn't the hospital call Ted as the emergency contact before?

Lawyer Marshall, lawyer!!!

[idioticonion]

DUDE! Thank you for your comment. Actually, having a Mr and Mrs Smith thing with Robin WOULD have been a cool idea. But I don't know, Robin just doesn't strike me as having a nefarious secret identity. Apart from Robin Sparkles that is. ;-)

wouldn't the hospital call Ted as the emergency contact before?

Well exactly. :-)

[smthwallflower]

But it would explain why she's so all over the place, wouldn't it? ;)

GAH!!! YOU EVIL!!! Now I'm trying to figure it out... AH! Wait, so you're saying they didn't call Ted... so what are you saying!?

[idioticonion]

Trust me, if I had had the idea that Robin is a secret assassin who's been trying to off Barney, I would DEFINITELY have written it by now.

I suggest you write it? It's an awesome plot bunny.

But yeah, what is happening with Barney will all be hopefully be revealed. I'm just trying to keep the story at the same pace, and quite low key in a lot of ways, with the emotions coming from Marshall's pain. I don't want to spin off into anything too melodramatic if I can help it.

Famous last words though.

I am so in love with this fic :)

It's just crazy good, woman. Crazy good!

[idioticonion]

Thank you honey!
